Redemption Key--S. G. Redling's second thriller featuring the wonderfully nerdy Dani Britton, this time in the boondocks of Florida

I Capture the Castle--Crumbling castle, eccentric family, and Cassandra--an optimistic but thoughtful teenager who loves writing, relishes life, and sees herself as a Bronte-Austen girl ripe for adventures--I was utterly charmed.

Wild Strawberries--Lady Emily Leslie is having a summer country house party in Angela Thirkell's second witty, delightful Barsetshire novel. Young love, misunderstandings, French monarchists, uninvited guests, lots of fun.

Desert Run--Tough but damaged PI heroine, some local history, a WWII tie-in, Arizona scenery, a Hollywood producer, a Native American partner--what's not to love? This is Betty Webb's fourth mystery featuring Lena Jones.
